Iâ€™d go for Scholesy as the clubâ€™s greatest ever player. Iâ€™ve seen him do things that no other player can do. The way he can control the tempo of games, and his range of passing, are both incredible. Weâ€™ve seen over the years that players just havenâ€™t been able to get near him. And you canâ€™t forget his goals either.
